Advanced Five-Laser Flow Cytometer

Cytek Biosciences’ Cytek Aurora advanced flow cytometry system uses five lasers to enable seeing more than 30 colors from a single sample.

The latest version of the Cytek Aurora advanced flow cytometry system from Cytek Biosciences, a flow cytometry instrumentation provider, is available with five lasers to enable seeing more than 30 colors from a single sample.

According to the company, the system provides ease of use, design flexibility in experiments, and high-quality data. Going beyond 30 colors opens the door to simplified workflows and access to a larger choice of dyes and specificities for applications that require deep profiling of cell populations in a single sample, as stated by the company.

Key features include: 

  • No changing of optical filters 

  • Use of any fluorochromes excited by the onboard lasers

  • Sensitivity redefined by advanced technologies

  • Efficient resolution of dim and rare populations 

The company showcased the system at the CYTO 2019 Congress on June 22–26, 2019 in Vancouver, Canada.
